Tenth Month of Lior Sent

 

 

As our Sun Baby enters his tenth month on Planet Earth, he becomes the proud owner of two tiny teeth that explain the many yucky diapers he produced over the past weeks (left).

Even when it is cold outside, the Sent family likes to go for a bike ride (middle right). All that is needed to stay warm is a hat, a scarf, gloves, a heavy coat, and a cover (far right). Poor Lior has come down with yet another cold, but is a real trooper about it.
Upon entering his tenth month on Planet Earth, our Sun Baby also moves into a bigger bed, much to his delight (far left), and gets more and more hair that "needs" to be styled (middle left).
Papa comes over on a regular basis to hang out with Lior and Luna, who have great fun sitting on his lap together (row below).
Being the proud owner of two teeth, Lior learns all about taking care of them (row below). That is, the one thing he does not yet have down is which side of the toothbrush needs to go inside his mouth!
Lior is very lucky to have two wonderful grandfathers. He loves to hang out on Opa Ben's lap, wearing the cute pyjamas that his big sister Aafke bought for him (middle right). And he has fun playing on Opa Tano's lap with his little sister Luna (far right).
Do these two look like trouble makers or what (left)? Lior loves to play with Luna's toys, while Luna loves to find out how hard she can squeeze her brother's hands before he starts complaining. Over all, though, the two love to be together. They get big smiles on their sweet faces when they see each other. And mom joins, of course, proud of her small family.
Here is one of Luna's toys with which Lior is so thrilled (row below). Luna got it from Opa Tano and Oma Naatje when she turned a year old. It is hard to believe that our Sun Baby will turn a year old in a little over two months. It seems like only yesterday that he needed to have his neck supported. He is a very physical baby who is making very rapid progress.
Every Thursday, Lior goes swimming with his sister Luna, his mom, and Oma Alie (middle right). Esther-Mirjam uses it as an excuse to spend some quality time cuddling with her son (far right).
It is hard to determine who enjoys the swimming more, Luna or Lior (far left). And when Luna sits on her mom's back, Lior follows the example on Oma Alie's back (middle left).

Hip, Hip, Hurray!
Ten months old!

Oma Alie has made a special hat to celebrate Lior's tenth month day (right). As you can see, our poor sun baby's forehad is still a little dry. As you cannot see, he still seems to have some problems with his airways. Lior is sooo ready for the end of the cold season!
